Topeka Capital: Prof. E. B. Cowgirl
of Sterling. who was appointed as state
inspector of sugar manufactured in the
state. for which bounty OF cents per
pound is paid. as provided by an act of
the legislature March ), 1887. yesterday
filed report Of his inspection with
Major Sims, showing the result of his
inspection at Fort Scott. He shows in
his report the per cent. of crystalized
and uncrystalized sugar, and the per
cent of substances not sugar.
He says the analysis made showed
that the uncrvstalized sugar and the
substances not sugar contained in these
packages were in nearly equal proper
tions. so that the difference between the
percentages of the crystalized sugar and
1G0 per cent. is divided equally between
uncrystalized sugar and substances not
sugar. He inspected and branded 125
packages of about 800 pounds each; the
per cent. Of crystalized sugar is from 9s
TO 9S per cent. The total amount of
sugar manufactured by the Parkinson
works is 234. .1O6 pounds, on which the
state will pay bounty of , cents per
pound. amounting to $4.9ff.12. The
bounty. however, is not due until Janu-
ary |.

The rapid recuperation of France after
the terrible disasters that country suffer-
ed incident to the overthrow of the last
imperial dynasty that ruled it and the
establishment of the republic, was in
deed, phenomenal and has often been
commented upon: but rapid as it was it
otherwise unprecedented record in that
respect is exceeded by the record made
by the United States since this country
passed through the crucial test of civil
war. the most stupendous known to
history, as is shown by the following
figures compiled by the National Re-
publican: THE census Of 1880 estimated
the wealth OF the country at SIG, 159, ,616,
06S. In 1870 this has increased to $50
06S. 518, ,507. and in 1880 the estimated
true valuation Of the property OF the
Nation aggregated the enormous SUN
of $43. .642 .000,000, or more than treble
what it was at the beginning of the war
This is the most astonishing growth of
wealth of any nation in the history of
the world"

News from the east indicates a fever
ish condition of affairs between the
principal powers on the continent.
There is little doubt that the pacific
adjustment of the impending crisis in
France last week averted, temporarily at
least, serious complications among the
European powers. The immense stand
ing armies maintained by all of them are
a constant menace to the peace OF the
country, but there appears to be no hope
of removing it.

Topeka and Fort Scott papers may
parade with gusto sickening recital of
local occurrences as so many jokes or
subjects for irony to their hearts con-
tent. AS for the EAGLE it mentions such

for the feelings of the distressed to
bandy their sorrows as a thing of levity.

The report Of the interstate commerce
commission states that freight tIaffic
for the year has been exceptionally large
in volume, and it is believed to have
been in no small degree stimulated by a
growing confidence that the days of re-
bates and special rates were ended, and
that open rates on an equal basis We're
now offered to all comers. The reflex
action Of this development of confidence
among business men has been highly fa-
vorable to the roads.

Herr Most may thank his stars that he
was tried in New York instead of Chi
cago. When he contrasts his one year
in states prison with the long, weary
years that stretch out before Fielden' and
Schwab he will no doubt count himself
a most lucky person. The sentence.
though light, in Most's case is enough to
emphasize the law and popular senti-
ment upon the pernicious heresy that
has cost him his liberty for the time
being.
